Donny......you have to remember not everyone is a TOTL arranger player like yourself. I mean like.......you're the best, or at worst, you're one of the elite few that can play any keyboard including a KMA right out of the box without even using a manual. That really impressed me. You can make keyboards "talk." People like you can pick and choose what jobs you want, how much you're going to charge, how long your breaks will be, do you get a meal, and do they fill your car up with gas again after the gig? In a world of noblemen and the aristocracy, you are the noblest of noble, and a welcome dues-paying member of the aristocracy.

In short, you're constantly "in demand!" I really wouldn't expect someone like you, who does 3 jobs every holiday that comes around, to understand how the phone could stop ringing for ordinary players like myself.
